Re: New members?

Lo il!
But the amount of spam I was getting was unparalleled! I still get some spam via the "contact us" form but thats nothing compared to the 50+ attempts of subscribing I was getting a couple of years ago.

Works like a charm, it seems :)

Weirdly, the Archive is one of my clients and I got a call (related to engineering, not videogames heh!) from themy just yesterday. Next time they call me, I will ask them to put me in contact wi...

Re: New game! Whack 'Em Smack 'Em Byrons
